I remember someone discussing the assumptions that DnD is playtested on sometime or other any one care to refresh me. 25 point buy? Wealth by level presumably. what else? I'm running a game and am trying to decide what to start people on. I'm favouring level 3 with a 25 point buy, possibly a...

Been knocking around ideas with a friend for some homebrewed adjustements they'll all appear piece by piece here for comments. Skill points as follows. Use base class allotment assign to skills as normal, including class skill costs but not the half the value cap. Add strength, dex and Con...

Hullo all, I want to spread the news about how good some of these story hours are, unfortunately a couple of the people who I want to get to read them have *intermittent* internet access. This isn't entirely an altruistic desire, I want to share some of the high level story hours to get some...

I usually DM and one of my friends is starting a game to play on odd nights on our game night. Its 15th level Characters with mages etc being dubious as there was some magical cataclysm recently and they are rare and mistrusted. We are currently playing Ars Magica and I have a crazy elemental...

The thread title say it all really. I suppose I should expand this to. Can they by RAW? What sequence of actions would it take? Is this intended by the spirit of the rules, is it too powerful, too weak without etc etc. I have a sorceror 2 fighter the rest going for AA as soon as possible...

Just read a thread where someone mentioned the idea of a swift action dispel magic. I really like the idea of counterspelling being a good tactic in general. I have engineered and been subject to scenarios where dispelling worked really well while the fighters beat a mage down. I'd liek it to...

Ok this is a continuation of the savage elves game that I have posted for advice for previously, things are going swimmingly so far. But yet again I seek inspiration. First things first we haven't had a real good fight for a while I'd like a chance for the paladin and the cleric to stand toe to...

After so much success with the ideas posted the last time I asked for ideas about my wild-elfy savage homebrew. And due to the stinking cough cold andsore throat that is slowing my thinking to a crawl. I thought I'd ask for some cool ideas of items creatures or locations within a dwarven...

Apologies if this is in the wrong forum. Wasn't sure which way the conversation would turn. Ok the situation, I ran a weaker invisible stalker agianst my party last night with one death and me not playing it as optimumly as possible to avoid another death and probably more. 1stly the...

Recently posted a thread asking for ideas in the general forum, for a wilderness elven savage campaign. I have more of an idea where I want to take the campaign now and am sorting out some protagoinists and concepts. At the end of the last session the party found an item (crystal glowing...

Right, I have a character in the game I run/have just started to run, who has expressed interest in the improved sunder feat - this in its self is fine. However I have not really used the sunder rules before and want to make sure I know how they run. It also seems to me from the description...

Hi all, I'm currently playining an Iron Kingdoms game and the DM and I are looking for the prestige classes available in the game. Any one happen to have a list? don't want stats or anything just names/descriptions so the party can start thinking about what suits them maybe.

I used to post her ages ago, haven't done for ages just been lurking. I'm about to start running a campaign to run in between our shadowrun game sessions on thursday nights. I had a pile of splat books (all the complete books bad psion and divine) and wanted to see them in use, didn't want it...

I've finished university this summer and havent found myself a job yet. So its been a long summer of no DnD and none on the horizon till I get myself sorted and move out of home to whereever I end up. As you do, I have started planning my next campaign or my next campaign world at least. I've...

I really like the idea of the LA races, however the way the system breaks down with fifth level characters with 1 HD or whatever bugs me. I'm not planning on re working the entire system and I don't particularly want a grand unified system, just to hash out some simple changes that'd prevent...

This is a two part question. First is to check I am doing it right. making a human barbarian normal human has 1 racial HD when given a level of barbarian replaces that with the barbarian HD so 1d8 + con mod -----> 1d12 + con mod making a gnoll barbarian starts with 2 racial HD when given a...

Still toying vaguely with the daggerspell mage prestige class (anything is better than revision! ;) ) Second level ability Invocation of the knife, looks pretty funky and flavourful. I'm not sure how much of what it i'm allowed to post (don't want to be a bad snowy :) ). Can turn half energy...

Was pondering an idea for a character, haven't got a game for him to go in, just more fun that typing up my project :). Was thinking about using complete adventurer and making a spellthief but they're a bit too specialised and not too tricky to build (Still sounds fun but i'll just roll it up...

First of all sorry if this is in the wrong forum everybody/mods. I've got a character in my dnd campaign that I have introduced to my players a couple of times and am puzzling how to stat out (until now been friendly but the players may end up picking a different side in the fight to what I...
